Poems by
Jean-Jacques Du Chazal
There is no day like today
There is no moment like now
And there is no one like you
Go on then, my beautiful friend
Be all you are and unfold,
Add to the garden of this world
The unique flower that you are
And let your fragrance fill the air. |
He who is
Disillusioned
Had an illusion
And now
Confusion and
Hesitation
Destroys
Expectation.
Better off
Is he
Who has
No bubble
To offer
To the
Destroyer.
|
An ambitious man set himself a goal and began to move
towards it.
After he reached his goal, he was satisfied. But soon he
became thirsty again; although he was already set for life …
no need to worry about wealth, he had plenty. He met with
Greed and they became friends. So Ambition and Greed decided
to set more goals and become even richer. So they did. But
the thirst never went away.
On their many journeys they came across many individuals
whom they mostly ignored unless there was opportunity to
accumulate more wealth, until one day they came across
someone who had a broad smile and kind eyes, his name was
Content. There was something unusual about this one. His
humble abode was neat and great calm lived in it. Content
had a wife; her name was Love, and also two children, twins
they were; Joy was the one and peace was the other. “Are you
not thirsty for more?” asked Ambition. “No, I have enough,
thank you.”
“How can you be happy with so little?” Asked Greed?
“Oh, dear stranger, I have plenty. Look around you in this
household lives contentment, love, joy and peace. Gold and
silver cannot buy these. I would not trade what I have for
anything this world has to give.”
Ambition and greed left this extraordinary household in deep
thought, somehow knowing that a very good seed had been
planted in their hearts.
